Objective:In order to reduce the trauma associated with fetal cardiopulmonary bypass(F-CPB), Our team plans to develop a minimally invasive F-CPB through a small incision in the right axilla. The efficacy of this technique will be verified by using a big experimental animal model, thereby laying the foundation for fetal cardiac surgery supported by F-CPB in the future.Methods:Ten pregnant sheep were divided into F-CPB group(n=5) and control group(n=5). After fasting for 24 h, fetal lambs in the F-CPB group underwent a right axillary incision to establish F-CPB running for 1 h; The control group of fetal lambs only expose heart 1 h without F-CPB. Collect blood sample for laboratory test at the CPB vehicle before(T0), 30 min(T1), and 1 h after F-CPB running(T2) for the F-CPB group and through Superior Vena Cava before(T0), 30 min(T1), and 1 h after F-CPB running(T2) for the control group.Results:The blood routine indicators such as RBC, HCT, and Hb in the F-CPB group of fetal lambs decreased significantly during F-CPB, and their distribution showed significant statistical differences compared with the control group( P<0.05). There were no significant statistical differences in blood gas indicators such as pH, PO 2, PCO 2, and lactate concentration between the F-CPB group and the control group( P>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the concentration of cTnI in fetal lamb serum at each time point( P>0.05). There were significant statistical differences( P<0.05) in the distribution of fetal lamb Alb, γ-GGT, CK concentration and cholesterol concentration at various time points in the F-CPB group compared with the control group in liver function examination. In addition, the distribution of BUN in fetal lambs showed a significant difference between the two groups( P=0.006). Conclusion:A minimally invasive F-CPB via small incision in the right axilla is safe and feasible. The experimental animal model has demonstrated that this technique has minimal impact on the vital organ functions and internal environment of fetal lambs, thereby laying the foundation for clinical fetal cardiac surgery in the future.

Heart failure(HF)is the terminal stage of the development of various heart diseases.As a serious disease with impaired cardiac pumping function,it has a high hospitalization rate and mortality,and has long been a focus of attention in the medical community.The ejection fraction refers to the percentage of blood pumped out by the left ventricle during each contraction to left ventricular end diastolic volume(LVEDV).It is an important indicator for measuring the pumping function of the heart and is often used to classify heart failure.With the continuous deepening of domestic and foreign research,significant progress has been made in the classification,pathophysiology,diagnosis,and treatment strategies of heart failure,and more cutting-edge new drugs and devices have great potential in treatment.This article aims to review the latest research results on heart failure with different ejection fractions,explore the latest treatment strategies for various types of heart failure,provide more effective diagnosis and treatment strategies and plans for clinical and scientific research,and enhance public awareness and attention to heart failure diseases.

Heart failure(HF)has complex pathophysiological mechanisms and is associated with high mortality and readmission rates.As the terminal manifestation of cardiovascular disease and the main cause of death,HF remains a critical focus in the medical community.Despite advances in standardized treatment through western medicine,many patients remain at high risk for cardiovascular events.Shenfu Qiangxin pill,a traditional Chinese patent medicine,has shown promising results in recent years regarding its mechanisms and clinical applications for HF treatment.This article elaborates on the latest research trends of Shenfu Qiangxin pill in the treatment of HF,examining its composition,efficacy,and mechanisms from both traditional Chinese and western medical perspectives.It also explores its clinical applications and safety,highlighting its potential and prospects in HF treatment and providing a theoretical basis for clinical practice.

Objective:To describe the characteristics, etiology and patterns of outpatients and inpatients patients with moderate or severe valvular heart disease (VHD).Methods:This is a cross-sectional study. Outpatients and inpatients with moderate or severe VHD who underwent transthoracic echocardiography for first examination from 1 st January 2001 to 1 st January 2020 in Southwest Hospital, Army Medical University were enrolled. Data were collected from medical records and big data platform of Southwest Hospital. Characteristics of age and gender, etiology and types of VHD were descriptively analysed. Results:A total of 68 354 patients with moderate or severe VHD were enrolled. The age was 63 (50, 72) years. And 35 706 (52.24%) patients were female. (1) Age characteristics: There was similar age trend between male and female patients with moderate or severe VHD. The number of patients increased firstly and then decreased and reached its peak in the age group of 65-69 years old. The peak age of mitral stenosis patients was 45-49 years, which was earlier than that of whole patients with moderate or severe VHD. The median age of patients with bicuspid aortic valve was 42 years. (2) Gender characteristics: The proportion of tricuspid regurgitation, pulmonary regurgitation, mitral regurgitation, mitral stenosis and valve surgery in female patients with moderate or severe VHD were higher than those in male patients. The proportion of aortic regurgitation, aortic stenosis and bicuspid aortic valve in male patients with moderate or severe VHD were significantly higher than those in female patients (all P<0.05). (3) Etiology: The proportion of rheumatic VHD was 13.07% (8 934/68 354), which was higher than that of degenerative VHD (0.67% (458/68 354)). (4) Types of VHD: Tricuspid regurgitation made contribution to the largest proportion with 60.72% (41 503/68 354), followed by mitral regurgitation, aortic regurgitation, mitral stenosis, pulmonary regurgitation and aortic stenosis. Conclusions:There are certain regional characteristics in the prevalence of moderate or severe VHD in southwest China, suggesting different attention should be paid on the whole process of refined management of moderate or severe VHD.

BackgroundRehabilitation for schizophrenia typically relies on pharmacological interventions， yet their efficacy in improving social function and quality of life remains limited. In recent years， non-pharmacological approaches have shown promise in enhancing rehabilitation outcomes. However， research on the effectiveness of psychomotor therapy specifically for young and middle-aged schizophrenic inpatients is limited. ObjectiveTo explore the effects of psychomotor therapy on the rehabilitation of young and middle-aged schizophrenic inpatients， and to provide a reference for treatment strategies. MethodsA total of 104 young and middle-aged schizophrenic inpatients who met the International Classification of Diseases，tenth edition （ICD-10） diagnostic criteria and hospitalized in the Fourth People's Hospital of Wuhu from June 2021 to June 2022 were selected. Patients were randomly divided into two groups of 52 each using random number table method. Both groups received treatment with risperidone tablets （2~4 mg/d） ， along with routine nursing care. Additionally， the research group received an extra 45~55 minutes of psychomotor therapy 2~3 times per week for 12 weeks. The control group received the same psychomotor therapy after the study. Positive and Negative Symptom Scale （PANSS）， Scales of Social-skills for Psychiatric Inpatient （SSPI） and Insight and Treatment Attitude Questionnaire （ITAQ） were used to assess the patients before the intervention and at 4^th， 8^th and 12^th week after the intervention. ResultsThe main effects of intervention at different time points for PANSS positive symptoms， negative symptoms and general psychopathology subscale scores， PANSS total score， SSPI score and ITAQ score were all statistically significant （F=33.989， 204.245， 82.817， 279.596， 26.144， 7.463， P<0.01）. Furthermore， statistically significant between-group differences were observed in PANSS negative symptoms and general psychopathology subscale scores， PANSS total score， SSPI score and ITAQ score （F=30.053， 5.306， 33.417， 33.013， 18.608， P<0.05 or 0.01）. Moreover， the interaction effect of time and group were statistically significant for PANSS positive symptoms， negative symptoms and general psychopathology subscale score， PANSS total score and SSPI score （F=3.472， 9.798， 3.843， 14.390， 20.661， P<0.05 or 0.01）. After 12 weeks of intervention， the research group exhibited statistically significantly lower PANSS total score and subscale scores compared with baseline （P<0.01）， while their SSPI total score was significantly higher than that of control group（P<0.01）. Additionally， compared with the control group， the research group had statistically significantly lower PANSS total score and subscale scores ， while their SSPI score was statistically significantly higher than those of control group（P<0.01）. ConclusionPsychomotor therapy may contribute to the improvement of the psychiatric symptoms and social function in young and middle-aged inpatients with schizophrenia， enhancing their rehabilitation outcomes. ［Funded by Health Commission Scientific Research Project of Wuhu （number， WHWJ2021y073）］
